I love that album art. The contrast of the colours is wonderful in the simplicity of the design. I think it's a great album too.
I have five of the avocado tees from 2006 as well

They're my favourite tees - along with my Reading Festival ones from 1999 until 2005!Wembley 2000 • Reading 2006 • Paris 2006 • Wembley 2007 • Shepherds Bush 2009 • Manchester 2009 • O2 Arena 2009 • Hyde Park 2010 • Arras 2010 • Manchester 2012 • Manchester II 2012 • Leeds 2014 • Milton Keynes 2014 • Amsterdam 2018 • Amsterdam II 2018 • London 2018 • London II 2018 • Hyde Park II 2022

VS is the best as it seemed to be just drawn out of speculation & 20 years later it is so relevant when modern album art is so contrivedEastern Creek 95,Syd 1 98,Bris 2 98, Syd 1&2 03, Reading Fest 06, Bris 1 06, London 09, Hyde Park 10, Gold Coast BDO 14 Budapest 22 Krakow 22 Amsterdam 22 St Paul 1&2 23 Chicago 1&2 23 Chicago 1&2 24 New York 1 24 Philly 1&2 24 Boston 1&2 24 Gold Coast 24 Melbourne 1 24 Sydney 1&2 240

I love each one except Binaural and Avocado, those 2 are most boring to me.
Lighting Bolt is really fun with each song theme I like it much better then Backspacer.
Vitalogy remains the best album cover + booklet of all time
No Code with palaroid is master piece, genius
Vs cover is just perfect for Vs period, just watching the image it takes me back in 93'
Ten maybe is nothing special from design point of view but being the best record of all time compensated a bitCAN'T KEEP CRAZY MARY IN MY TREE NO WAY NOT FOR YOU. ALL THOSE YESTERDAY JEREMY is ALONE, SAD with RATS & BUGS it's HARD TO IMAGINE a JEREMY a BETTER MAN.
LIFE WASTED, BLOOD on the PORCH, LAST KISS is a WISHLIST DEEP DOWN NOTHING AS IT SEEMS WHY GO COME BACK ALIVE SPIN THE BLACK CIRCLE and SMILE.0 -
